ADHDerpCast: Stephen's Tangents - Age, Opinions, and the Generation Gap 🎙️

In this solo episode, Stephen dives into the complexities of age and the biases that come with it. Whether you're young and dismissed for your inexperience or older and written off as out of touch, there's a frustrating commonality in how society treats different generations. Stephen also explores how age bias shows up in the LGBT community, adding another layer to the conversation.
On a lighter note, Stephen gives a shoutout to the hilarious Horse O'Keeffe, a TikTokker who's been making waves in Ireland. If you haven’t already, check out his podcast Why the Long Face? on Spotify here and follow him on TikTok @horseokeeffe.
